Buy Tokens

The EasyBuy option is ideal for players looking for an easy way to purchase Shadow Tokens. Acting as a stock broker of sorts, we execute buy and sell orders for you, and hold your tokens linked to your Shadow Era account. Please note the terms below.

The purchase price is determined by the actual buy price at the time the order is filled at market rates. An email receipt will give details of the purchase and number of SHDW bought.

To prevent fraud, new players without previous purchase history may not transfer SHDW to their own Waves account before 180 days.

You may, however, request to sell SHDW at any time, and the funds are sent to you after the sell is made at market rates.

Next, you will need to fund your account. There are links to deposit USD using a credit card, or deposit BTC or ETH by sending it to a certain address. You can also send Waves from a different exchange (eg Bittrex) by transferring it to your wallet address shown at the top.

If you are new to digital currencies, the easiest way forward is to purchase some Waves directly using a credit card. For larger amounts, or those not in the supported countries (such as USA), please use Bittrex or Coinbase and verify your identity.

Note that you will need a small amount of Waves to buy, sell, or transfer tokens. It costs 0.001 Waves to transfer, and 0.003 Waves to use the exchange when a buy/sell order is filled. The easiest way to exchange currencies is to use Changelly.

Frequently Asked Questions

We have answered a wide range of questions for your convenience

Q. Why are you using the Waves platform and not Ethereum?

After investigating Ethereum, I found that it was much too complicated for the average user. And the wallet requires you to download the whole multi-GB blockchain, which can take forever. Waves, on the other hand, has a simple online wallet available, doesn't need the whole blockchain, and supports a decentralized token exchange right from the start.

Q. What are these tokens really?

Each token represents a share of ownership of the game Shadow Era, the digital assets, intellectual property, and physical card inventory. There are 10,000,000 tokens in total. Besides being publicly tradable, players get many benefits and rewards from being token holders. However, digital tokens are not shares in a company nor are they financial securities. There will be a trust company to manage the assets and bank accounts, and the Board of Directors will be directing the development and token holders will vote on major decisions.

Q. Why should I buy Shadow Tokens?

As an investor, buying tokens at initial launch prices is a great opportunity to make money if you believe the price of tokens will rise in the future. As a player, you'll have a chance to get involved in the game and earn many rewards.

Q. How will token holders link them to their Shadow Era account?

In order to receive rewards in the game, we have to know your daily balance of tokens. We can verify ownership of your Waves address in one of 2 ways:

Keep your "easy buy" tokens with us, or deposit your tokens into our account. You can withdraw them at any time.

Send any amount of ST (eg 0.00000001) to our Waves address 3PKEQiRe2u6488jdvUAUYshrM4fQPf4omak with your player name as an attachment.

More info about verifying your Waves address will be provided in the future.

Q. How is the price of the tokens determined?

The tokens are available for purchase on the Waves decentralized exchange. Since the tokens are traded on an open market, the price is determined by the demand.

The number of tokens purchased with the "easy buy" option is determined by the current market price at the time of purchase.

The price will likely keep increasing over time as demand grows, until all the tokens are sold.

As an open market, other people are free to create buy and sell orders at whatever prices they want.
